When running rsync through ssh to another host, it silently hangs if the target disk fills up. rsync-2.6.3-1 and Linux 2.6.10-1.770_FC3 #1 Thu Feb 24 14:00:06 EST 2005 i686 athlon i386 on both machines. Reproducible 90% of the time. E.g., if the disk fills up while in the midst of sending a large file, rsync hangs silently. But, if the disk is already full before sending a file (I think?), then you might get an error message like rsync: writefd_unbuffered failed to write 4 bytes: phase "unknown" [sender]: Broken pipe (32) rsync: write failed on "foo": No space left on device (28) rsync error: error in file IO (code 11) at receiver.c(305) rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (2256357 bytes received so far) [generator] rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(359) unexpected tag 109 rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(689) But not usually. My arguments, for the record: --rsh ssh --recursive --links --perms --times --owner --group --sparse --hard-links --delete --force --verbose

If it is not a security issue and hasn't been resolved in the current FC5 updates or in the FC6 test release, reopen and change the version to match. Thank you!
